Karen Compton : A Teacher of Character.

Karen Compton had always been an all-around volunteer in her community of Marysville, CA. But after a serious injury prevented her from working over a decade ago, she decided to utilize all of her free time to mentor children, teenagers and young adults about how to build happy and productive lives without falling in the trap of substance abuse. Eventually, her skills and enthusiasm were recognized and she was offered a position with Pathways, a national organization dedicated to drug and alcohol abuse prevention and rehabilitation.
